Awards and More Awards

I have been honored with several awards lately, for which I am thankful to have people who care about me that way. I'm also feeling guilty because right now I don't have the time to follow the rules with them. I do want to say thank you to the wonderful people that bestowed them though.

First, I would like to thank Sam at Future; Nostalgic for the You Are My Sunshine Award.

Next thanks goes to Hope at Tartitude for the Creative Writer Blogger Award.


Thank you to Jon Strother at Mad Utopia for the Honest Scrap Award.

This award was also given to me by Estrella Azul at Life's a Stage but I talked her into putting it back in the freezer where she's skinning people arranging flowers.






Both the Quillfeather Award and the Best Blogging Buddies Award are from Michelle D Evans. She had a lovely way of passing them on. If you commented on her blog, you received them.

All of you are wonderful friends to me, more than you may realize. I hope that each person reading this blog will visit the sites listed above and know that you are deserving of any of these awards and freely add them to your own blogs. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for being here.

Honest Scrap Award

I have been honored with the Honest Scrap Award by fellow #fridayflash enthusiast, Dan Powell of dan powell – fiction. Thank you so much, Dan!

The award is meant to be passed on to bloggers who post from the heart. The rules are simple: pass the award on to seven worthy blogs and list ten honest things about yourself.


My list of seven ‘honest’ bloggers who post from the heart:


Tomara Armstrong of This, That…The Other Thing

JujuJuniper of We Can All Use a Little More Juju

Stef from 52 Weeks of Wordage

Carol Kilgore of Under the Tiki Hut

Laura Mercurio Ebohon of Laura Mercurio Ebohon

Lisa Gurney of My Life As a Daughter

Angel Zapata from A Rage of Angel

Now on to the ten honest things about me –


1. Hate coffee, but love coffee-flavored ice cream.

2. Have always wanted to live on a space station.

3. Love to travel, but not around the U.S.

4. Don’t like to cook, but haven’t found a chef willing to work for free yet.

5. Love cats.

6. Like to watch snow fall, but then it needs to go away – which is why I live in the South.

7. Am a native Californian.

8. Don’t watch TV.

9. Was pushed aside by Princess Leia in the battle for my 5 yr old son’s affections – I guess she was Hot Woman, hair buns and all.

10. Detest phones.


Many thanks to dan powell – fiction for giving me this award. And to my awardees, please pass the award on so that we may all continue to meet new people.
